There is no need that we who plan for the
conquest Of right over wrong should publish
to all the world our intentions The general
Of an army never sends to the opposing troops

who have enlisted in the cause Of God and
humanity, expose our plans to the enemy7
No! we will in secret plot the ruin of all the
enterprises of Satnn and his cohorts. When
they expect us by day Ne will call upon them
by night. Whilo they are strengthening their
left wing we will double up their right. BY q
plan Of battle formed in secret conclave we
will come suddenly upon them, crying: 1.-THE

plot and execution are wrong only when the
object and ends are nefarious. Every family
is secret society, every business firm and ev-
cry banking and insurance institution. Those
men who have no capacity to keep secret
are unfit for positions Of trust anywhere.
There are thousands Of men whose vital need
is culturing a capacity to keep secret Men
talk too much and women, too. There is a
time to keep silence, as well as a time to
speak.

Ebin Stanley returned Tuesday after noon from trip through the Blue and Eagle Creek country, and confirms the report as to the killing of Sprague alias "Long- Hair," and Timberlinc, alias "Jack of Diamonds" with various other aliases. Mr. Stanley says that Charlie Thomas, when questioned as to the kill ing, would neither say yes or no, but re- marked that they would never steal any more horses from him. Some prospect ors, it is said, came along shortly after the killing and buried the corpses, and from their description Of the bodies there can be very little doubt flat tie first report was correct. 1t is said that Long Hair" has been dodging the au- thorities of one Or two States and two or three Territories for the last ten years, and that the rewards had increased to such an extent on his head, that he frc- quently made the remark that "'the man who took him could afford to wear dia- monds." He, like every one else of his kind, however, had to pay the penalty Of his crimes.
